What Double Click Dictionary does
The extension checks the meaning of a lexical item on any website when you double-click it. Instead of copying a word into a search engine or a separate dictionary site, the definition appears right where you're reading, which keeps interruption to a minimum for quick lookups during casual browsing or reading.
Double Click Dictionary: free and simple
The extension is free to install and use, and its scope is intentionally narrow: it's built around one action, double-clicking a word, rather than offering multiple lookup methods or a choice of dictionary sources. That simplicity is the main appeal for people who don't want extra settings.
Is Double Click Dictionary safe?
Like any in-page lookup tool, it needs to read the text on webpages you visit so it can detect the word you double-click and return a definition. That's the access required for the double-click feature to function on any site.
